From GIER Users

"To my company and I am betting the industry, GIER was probably one of the most important pieces of software developed in the last probably five to ten years."

"The industry faced the problem where we needed to meet a regulatory requirement by stenciling an IEP information on every single intermodal chassis. By putting it in a registry and facilitating it through a database, we've saved the industry $60 million."
